THE HAWAIIAN QUEEN.
visit to New EnrIand

The promised visit of the Polynesian
Queen KapiOlani, of the kingdom of
the Hawaiian Islands to New England
is the event of the week. Her visit to
8 Washington last week was the first
visit of full fedged queen to the cap
ital of the republic. Queen Emma,
widow of KameIameha ~. who was in
Washington few years ago, was dow
ager queen The coming queen was
crowned with the king and occupies a
throne with him.
Queen KapiOlani, meaning in the
American vernacular Soaring towards
heaven" is descended through her
father from long line of savage chief
tains, who ruled over some of the adj
iacent Pacific islands. When she mar
ried King kalakaua she was the widow
of one of the feudal chiefs of high rank
and prOwcss, and came to the throne
in 1852. She is about % years of age,
but remarkably well preserved, and
speaks English fiuently. The con-
querOr KamahamalIa |. (the lonely One)
the King Alfred of Hawaii, after sub
jugating the petty kings of the eight
inhabited islands of the fifteen which
come within the present kingly juris-
tablished the conquered chiefs into a
feudal relation to himself. 1t was dur
ing the reign of his successor that the
. missionaries gained foot hold on the
islands. This ruler, Kamehameha III.
having visited England with his queen,
4 both took the measles during their So
4 journ ut the English capital, and both
died there, leaving the throne to IA boy.
tod in 70
1t was at this time that the influence
of the missionaries began to be felt in
the administration of public affairs.
In 1925 DIR. Gerritt p. Judd, of Massa-
chusetts, lay member of the American
Board of Missions, arrived in HOnolu-
In and practised among the natives,
thus gaining their confidence. When
the regency took charge of the govern
ment of the minor king, DIR. Judd Was
taken into their cOunsels as political
adviser. When the boy grew to mans
estate and assumed the powers oil
kingship himself, DIR. Judd was form
ally installed as one of the ministry
1t was through his influence that the
feudatory system established by the
Polynesian monarch of all the islands
of the group was not set aside and 4
constitutional kingdom with IL council
of mobiles and an elective assembly
was reared in its stead. The fourth
Kamehameha who followed died with
out providing for the next occupant OF
the throne, and the family Kalakaua
(day of war; was elected by the No
bles and representatives. He was
crowned king with his queen, so that
instead of being queen consOrt kapiol-
ami shares the throne with him, and lis
the females of IA dynasty in Hawaii en-
joy as much right as the males she
would be his successor.

Ozark, Mo, April 28.-The grand
jury investigating the Bald Knobbers
completed its task yesterday afternoon
and after handing to Judge Hubbard if
teen more bills, was discharged. In all
they indict eighty persons on about 25O
charges of murder, felony and misde-
meanor. 1t is thought that the society of
masked regulators who caused the reign
of terror in this vicinity is totally ami
hilated, though at awful cost to
the community. The sheriff started with
a large posse yesterday to arrest
the men indicted. There are yet about
fifty capasses to be served. The Bald
Knobbers' attorneys will put their trials
off as long as possible. They say that
they will not consent to have the trials in
this county. The strength in this organ

Facts Regarding the Personal Memoirs of
General Grant.
HARTFORD, Conn, April % During
the exercises in memory of General Grant
last evening the following curious statis-
tics in regard to the manufacture of the
personal memoirs of General Grant were
read. In binding cloth books 1888 square
yards of cloth were used; or, if putin one
piece, 1t would make a "trip one yard
wide and twenty-five and one-hfth miles
long. The gold used in stamping, let
tering, ETC., on all styles OF bind
ing, if coined, would make SIS, AGO Al.
The price paid the gold heaters for this
gold was S2l6,350 There were 276 bar
rels of binders paste used, weighing
about 90. 600 pounds. There p, 1882 sheep
skins used, 1921 goat skins and l48 calf
skins. As none of these skins were
split it represents the killing Of an
equal number of animals. There were
about SOP, $40 reams of paper used in the
printing which weighed about 1,8l $3.50
pounds, OF 9061 tons. This put in to one
piece would make q strip two feet wide
and l6S2s miles long. II the books were
piled up in one room the narroWest way,
that is the same as they would stand in
bookcase, they would take q shelf
nineteen and half miles long to
hold them. If the pages of the books
were Joined togetherit would make strip
of paper six inches wide and 6,729t miles
long. Forty-One stesm presses were
working day and night, and 10000 opera
tives were employed, and over 5000 agents
were engaged in distributing the books.
To these latter, who were mainly old
soldiers and widows of soldiers, was paid
commissions for selling the books Of con-
siderably more than 81, 100000 in cash.
